Sub Panel Installation in Paramus, NJ

Subpanel installation in Paramus

We size the sub panel and its feeder from the loads it will serve, confirm the main panel can supply it, and run the feeder by the cleanest route. Neutrals and grounds are kept separate at the sub panel, and detached buildings get their own grounding electrodes.

Basement sub panel near Oradell and River Edge

Paramus is in Bergen County, and our crews are in the area most days. If you are just outside town, we also work in Oradell, River Edge, New Milford and Fair Lawn. Here we cover ZIP code 07652.

Much of Bergen County was built before 1960: colonials, capes, two-family houses and brick apartment buildings with plaster walls. For an electrician that usually means 60 or 100 amp service, a mix of old cloth-covered cable and newer wire, and panels that were never meant to carry central air, an induction range and a car charger at the same time. We see it every week around Paramus and we plan the work around it.

Sub panel installation in Paramus: common questions

Does a sub panel add capacity to my house?

No. It adds breaker spaces, not amps. If the service itself is too small, the fix is a service upgrade.

Can a sub panel go in a detached garage?

Yes. It needs a properly sized feeder, a disconnect and its own grounding.

How far can it be from the main panel?

As far as needed. For long runs we size the wire up to limit voltage drop.

Do I need a permit for electrical work in Paramus?

New circuits, panel changes and service work generally need a permit from the local construction office. Simple like-for-like replacements usually do not. We tell you when your job needs one.

Which towns near Paramus do you serve?

We also work in Oradell, River Edge and New Milford and the rest of Bergen County.

What customers say

Our old 100 amp panel was full and warm. They upgraded us to 200 amps in one day, labeled every breaker and dealt with the utility and the inspection. Power was back before dinner.
James K., Toms River

Salt air had eaten our outdoor outlets and the meter box. They replaced everything with gear made for the shore and checked the rest of the service while they were here.
Mike T., Atlantic City

I needed a charger installed before my car arrived. They checked the panel, ran the circuit through the garage and set up the app with me. Neat conduit work and no surprises on the bill.
